Reviewer 3 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

The authors, in this comment to the article by Hemerling et al. on the nano-dry-melting technology, attempt to respond to certain remarks that appear to be unfounded, providing relevant literature that supports their views. Considering the points of concern of the Hemerling paper, it is my opinion that there are indeed some hasty conclusions and unfounded statements in the Hemerling article. The points raised by the authors in their comment are valid, but I have an objection regarding the phrase "...and thus no need to misrepresent the innovations of others without fairly reviewing the published literature" in the conclusions, as it implies -or could be interpreted as such- that the misrepresentation of the KinetiSol technology was intentional. I would rather see this part of the text rephrased, to avoid any such implications or misinterpretations.

Author Response

Thank you for sharing your perspective on the phrasing of the final sentence in the Conclusion section. We appreciate your feedback.

Regarding the strong wording used, we acknowledge your concerns. However, we would like to emphasize that our intention was to highlight the potential reputational damage that could be caused to novel technologies as a result of the introduction of speculative statements into the literature. It is worth noting that the authors consciously decided to publish their speculation without providing any supporting evidence or citations.

Reviewer 4 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

Authors should add in a note at the end of their comment article (though it is implied in the address details) that they are a commercial entity responsible for the development and applications of Kinetisol technology.

Author Response

The authors agree with the comment to add a disclaimer indicating our association with AustinPx. We look to the Jornal to advise how best to incorporate this statement into the final published form.
